Mmm u mean clock work recovery?
Or something else!

Check for the update to 0.8.4.1 - there was a bugfix for various widget-based FC's.

I had the Facebook Widget problem, it took years to update/refresh my facebook to the latest status. I dont set auto refresh as I worry it will eat up my data and battery. Anyone knows the solution?

Yeah try the latest version

Try clearing the application data of "Storage Calendar"!

I also have a problem with Launcher Pro, didn't wanna start a new thread..
It doesn't save the settings when I restart it. For example, I change the number of homescreens or the animation when switching them, and the next time I run LP (restart in menu / kill app and restart / reboot etc.) it's back to default.
I also can't keep LP Plus activated.. I enter the code, it says it's activated, I can add the LP Widgets..but after restart, it's locked again..
Help?

Tried clearing the data but even that didn't work!
So confusing and the developer didn't answer to the emails I sent!

Force close LP. Then with Root Explorer or Super Manager delete the following folder: /dbdata/databases/com.fede.launcher
(Might work for OP too...)

Not storing settings: delete /dbdata/databases/com.fede.launcher directory using Root Explorer (or adb).

Thanks a lot guys!
I was previously trying to delete that with Astro, but nothing would show in databases folder. Works like a charm with Root Explorer.

Hey guys still waiting for an answer regarding the calander widget crash...

[Q] messaging

Hey guys. So I was in terminal deleting the stock apps that I don't need to have and one of those apps which I deleted was the stock messaging app, I did this because I was using hancent. Well now I am not receiving any pictures.
- It all started after I deleted the stock app, I am not sure if it started immediately after or a while after
- I was using handcent and I noticed that I was getting the pop up received thing and the quick reply option but in the actual handcent app under each conversation the incoming message was not there.
Are there any suggestions to fix this or knowledge about this topic? Do you need to have the stock messaging app in order to have other messaging apps work? I can send pictures and texts; i can receive texts but not pictures...
You need the stock app. The 3rd party apps just piggyback off it.

I tried that and it didnt work...Not giving me the option to restore....
Did you make a backup? Or just reflash the Rom.

eveything I removed i backed up first through titanium back.. I see a little blue check next to it and it says data only..Not giving me a option to restore it..
Like I said before, just reflash the Rom you're using and start over. Nandroid is your friend

or manually push it. if you tell me what rom you're running, i'll make you a flashable zip. also, did you delete the messaging.providers.apk or the messaging.apk?
nvm i can just make a zip with both.
Hope you got it fixed. That's hard one to pick which forum it goes in lol either here or the Q/A.
I am using the stock rom. I just wanted root which I used unrevoked 3 to give me root. I removed messages 1.00 and messages wiget 2.2. I removed them with titanium backup. Thanks..
here you go dude. stock mms apk pushed to system/app by this zip.
I found the stock app and installed it...It worked...thanks

[Broken?] Disable Apps

Issue:
When I disable an app in the app info screen and reboot...the app returns from being disabled and shows up in my drawer
Expected result:
After a reboot, the application should not be re-enabled.
How to replicate:
1) Disable the app in app info (in settings)
2) Reboot
Attempts to fix:
Lets put it this way, I have tried everything I know to do. Im now even back to stock 4.0.2 locked bootloader and then it works. I know of people who are unlocked bootloader and ROM and it works perfectly.
Also, Titanium backup does not work to fix this issue. (Freezing apps)
What do I do?
If you're rooted install root explorer if you don't already have it. Create a directory under /system called app.disabled and move the apk from system/app to there. Problem solved. If you ever want it re-enabled just move it back.

You are not supposed to install the application, just copy and paste, then change permissions, and reboot and you will be able to use the widget.

Sounds like he isn't installing it but in fact doing it the way you suggest. OP, have you tried changing owner to root (both settings)?
Root explorer: long press app in system/app -> scroll down to change owner-> change both to root -> reboot.

never thought about that just changed them to root,
set permissions, reboot, but still not showing.
Also, fixing permissions in CWM should do this for you ...
The other thing, What is the widget, from what phone/ROM , know you said Stock weather, but if it is stock GB weather,
I am sure it relies on the GB TW-framework for the TWlaucher as the stock widget from samsung phones is a TW widget .....
Some widgets rely on framework or launcher items, and may not work on every phone/launcher ...

I've been receiving multiple repeated messages over and over! Any fix for this? It even happened on stock 4.2.. Could it be my radio?

Try reflash rom and gapps, with clean install if possible.
Or go into settings-apps-all and clear cache and data and disable messaging, it will probably disappear from apps list.
Reboot phone then go into settings-apps-all, press menu button and select reset app preferences, which will restart messaging app hopefully now working.
If that dont work try finding a stock messaging app, delete yours in system-apps using a root explorer, and then install the version you downloaded.
No guarantee any of this will work as i am a newbie but maybe worth a try and i dont know of any other solutions as yet.

Nova problem

Guys does any one know why I constantly have problem to install nova launcher
Try to restart your phone
From a post I found using the power of Google Search....
error -24
unkown still now but its coming on kitkat due to art problems
solution:
- Using a root file manager, go to /data/data
- Find the package name of the app you're wanting to install (Don't know the package name? Find the app you're wanting to install on the Play Store online and it's in the URL)
- Delete that folder. All of it.
- Try to install your app again, it should work now
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733038
So I'm thinking you need to turn off ART and go back to DALVIK
log out of all google account and try to log in again. i think u restored account data using TB, didn't you?

Could try a factory reset since you messed with Dalvik or clear all data on the playstore.

The you dont have root, or your file manager doesnt support root properly, or you dont have root enabled in your file explorer.
Ok, after factory reset my phone I install NOVA...Now I am back on Dalvik. Thanks ppl....

Awesome. Glad it works again for you. I have Nova and I won't change it for any other Launcher I even have the knock off function working too.
Good to hear. When I had my G2 I ran into an issue where I lost all my all data too, sucks restoring the phone.
I hv enabled ART on day one, first applied a factory reset though, then installed Nova and my favourite apps without issues. Everything is working fine, no lags, no overheating or whatever.
